I&#x27;ve been working with a fledgling company looking for someone comfortable with Windows Development. They want an interface where users can fill out a form, have that form become a txt file of commands using relatively simple rules (well defined and fully supplied), and then send those commands over a serial connection to an external device. I built out the form -&gt; txt file part as a website, but I don&#x27;t know how to make it work as a windows app with the serial part.<p>They&#x27;re interested in either a one off project or a long term employee who would work on this and other projects. For compensation, they would be ok with either a straight fee or one that includes equity&#x2F;revenue share agreement.<p>Contact: michael.b.lipman [at] gmail [d0t] com, mention windows freelancing
